Event organised with ICE South West sponsored by Taylor Woodrow
Discover our new action plan, developed from a series of collaborative workshops. With insights from ICE President David Porter, this event is a key moment for the SWIP community.
Infrastructure is inherently forward‑looking—what we build today will shape the lives and economies of future generations. Yet the pace of political, economic and societal change continues to challenge the stability and long-term thinking that effective infrastructure requires.
Action Plan 2030
SWIP and ICE South West have brought together industry, policymakers, and regional stakeholders to explore how the region can deliver infrastructure that is resilient, sustainable and user-centred. Through workshops, evidence-gathering and cross-sector dialogue, SWIP has consistently highlighted the need for more joined‑up policy, clearer long-term signals and stronger collaborative action, particularly in shaping infrastructure that works for communities, supports local places and enhances the natural environment.
In response, SWIP is refreshing its South West Vision to reflect the evolving policy landscape, changing user needs and regional ambition. The new Action Plan 2030 aims to inspire more resilient and sustainable infrastructure outcomes for the South West, delivered through smarter collaboration, stronger evidence, and shared long-term purpose.
Opportunity to hear from ICE President
As part of his official visit to the region, ICE President David Porter will deliver a keynote speech at the launch event highlighting the leadership, capability and innovation needed to meet the UK’s future infrastructure demands.
